Right beneath the Moscow downtown with its extra-costly realty lies ex-KGB dungeons. They are still full functioning and access is not so easy and still nobody knows the exact location and plan of those underground man-made caverns of Moscow but some parts of them now open for the

I am sure this tunnel pops out in indo china…

A little bit creepy, isn’t it ?

Makes we want to hop in my Pyro GL, collect blue shield orbs, and fight nasty virus crazed robots
Is that the “атомний телефон” on 14th picture?
Well, almost… The “nuclear button” IS actually a telephone, but that one wasn’t, because at that time there was no nuclear bomb (1940-50).
Very depressing, unlike the happy work environment I provide for my interrogators.
But, since I love my Russian friends and wish to be helpful, I recommend importation of interior designer from Italy to help with this nasty place. These hallways are in desperate need of the “three C’s”–color, curtains, and carpets.
Would make a nice club.
It’s obviously for tourists, it wouldn’t be written in English and they wouldn’t have obtained entry and taken the photos if it was still functioning. This looks more like military bunkers in disused underground railway tunnels made around World War 2.
The KGB dungeon is located right underneath Liubyanka.
Nice to see ER back on track, slightly. More of this and i’ll be a happy, happy man.
Stalin was a clown!

It`s former Secured Command Post «Tagansky». Museum of Cold war – expositional complex «Confrontation».

Just like I remember it.
Finally I know what was the source of inspiration of such computer games as Descent or Forsaken.
It looks like a robots are just behind the corner waiting to hit you from a laser gun
A must see place!
Russians are really good at digging their own graves.
Perhaps some Persian rugs too?
These are real, and I think was featured on the History Channel’s “Cities of the Underworld” (has an irritating host and repetitive music).
Anyway,
I heard it’s not really a tourist attraction, even though it has English signs. The walls were made to withstand a nuclear attack.
They were also used by Electronics Arts Moscow team to showcase Command and Conquer Red Alert 3 (http://www.ea.com/redalert/) to the press. It’s in one of their “Battlecast” videos.
I did a tour of the Berlin underground, was really cool. These pictures remind me of it.
